Work Description: 
A floating black disc hovers at top center, surrounded by bare canvas. A jagged, brown form rises from the bottom edge, reaches up towards the black disc, and then falls back down towards the right edge as it tapers off. In the unpainted space below the brown form, a yellow form sits near the bottom center. A thin, dagger-shaped red form cuts through the top edge of the black disc down towards its center from the top edge.
